Lucanos just posted a journal called Storm in a Teacup
Thanx for the title mate!
2 shot stitch.... made tiff... three exposures in PS using levels then photomatixed to an HDR.. little more levels and some colour punch with PS CS2 and voila! or Violin!
More coastal Port Macquarie and guess what.
I'm out of RAW's now...

Very nice.. I can see a little ghosting where the images were combined, I guess that is the only drawback of doing panoramas. I have done work sort of like this, usually I will photomatix the image (bracketed), paste it on top of the original in Photoshop, and then adjust opacity to dampen the effect a little. I like this though! Haven't seen an HDR with seashore I don't think..

Quite frankly, I find your photography inspirational. If I ever find the time, I would love to try to become even a portion as talented as you at this photography thing. All your images are just stunning and to me, memorable. I always have your images floating in the back of my mind. I desperately want to find the time to learn HDR. One day... *sighs*

Yes. That's actually where I found this image And I suppose... But I don't enjoy the over-saturated images too much, nor the images that had a field day with shadow contrastiness, making the whole image have this grey cast to it. ew. This one is just.. simply beautiful
